Hello & welcome to Faith Lutheran Church!
"I was glad when they said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the Lord!'" (Ps. 122:1)
These words of king David are ones that we, as Church, strive to emulate each and every Lord's Day. Coming to Sunday morning services should not be a burden, but a joy that makes our hearts glad. Not only do we get to see our friends and family but, most importantly of all, we are called to come into the presence of the Lord Himself and receive the gifts that He loves to give! It is a time for us to set aside the cares and concerns of the week, even if only for 60-90 minutes, and bask in the Lord Himself coming to, and serving, us. That is the very essence of the Divine Service - God Himself coming to us in His Word and Sacrament each week to bless us, not only with His presence, but with the gifts He gives through the means of grace; forgiveness, life and salvation. These are the gifts won for each of us by the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, and they are gifts that make our heart glad and our lips sing for joy!
While we are not called to gauge the Lord's work by our feelings it is true that the more one attends the Lord's Service the more they desire to come back, again and again. That is something the pastor and congregation of Faith Lutheran Church strive for in the lives of each of their members and guests. Because honestly, what better place is there to be on the Lord's Day than in the Lord's house?
We hope that, should you choose to join us in the celebration of the Lord's Day, you will find it a warm and joyful experience that makes your heart glad so that, just as king David wrote so many years ago, you too may be glad to come to the house of the Lord time and time again. May the Lord's blessings abound for you today, tomorrow, and always!
